Just one question on the response from Vishal Singh; what is the right way to lead a person who has become better than the technical lead in technology or domain (or aspect of the domain)? We do not want to restrict or curtail their ability, but we need to ensure they are working toward the right outcome. I guess, knowledge transfer back to the technical lead (and other members of the team), technical reviews and continually highlighting the technical vision become necessary? Should the technical lead change mid-project? - Steve. A nice summary…
